Counseling and Case Management Precertification Training
Start a new career or specialize with our affordable, multimedia training tracks designed to meet the requirements of most state certification boards
Why Get a Certification?
People generally get a certification for one of two reasons: 1) To demonstrate advanced skills and/or 2) To start a new career without having to go back to graduate school.
These specialty training programs combine a series of specialized, self-paced, multimedia classes taught by Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes PhD, LPC-MHSP, LMHC-QS to provide the necessary academic training to work with a particular population or disorder.
Most state addiction counseling boards offer multiple types of certifications in addition to addiction counseling such as case management, prevention specialist and recovery support specialist. Consult your local addiction counselor certification board about additional requirements to become board certified.
Note: If you are already certified or licensed in another discipline, these courses usually count toward your CEUs. For example, if you are already an LCSW and want to get certified as an addiction or case management professional, the precertification training would likely count toward your LCSW CEUs. Check our approval page to ensure our courses meet the requirements of your state boards.
Even if your state does not offer official certifications for Case Managers, Community Health Workers or Behavioral Health Technicians etc., having the certificate from AllCEUs proves to your employer that you have advanced training.
